  • Implementing OGC Web Map Service Client Applications Using JSP, JSTL and XMLC
    Implementing OGC Web Map Service Client Applications Using JSP, JSTL and XMLC Hao Ding , Richard Pascoe & Neville Churcher Department of Computer Science University of Canterbury. Christchurch, New Zealand Phone: +64 3 364-2362 Fax: +64 3 364-2569 Email: hdi12@student.canterbury.ac.nz , {richard, neville}@cosc.canterbury.ac.nz Presented at SIRC 2002 – The 14th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand th December 3-5 2002 ABSTRACT Java technologies are widely used in web application development. In this paper are described three approaches to developing Java-based web applications and our experiences with applying each to the development of client that interact with servers implementing the OGC (Open GIS Consortium) Web Map Service (WMS) specification. Also described is the installation and configuration of open source software that implements the WMS specification. The paper is concluded with some preliminary insights into when one of the three approaches to WMS client implementation is more suited to another. Keywords and phrases: WMS, JSP, JSTL, XMLC, map layer, web map server 1.0 INTRODUCTION Of the many technologies, such as Common Gateway Interface (CGI), Active Server Pages (ASP), JavaServer Pages (JSP), that are used to develop web applications, three are of particular interest to the research presented here. These three technologies or approaches to developing clients that utilise web services are JavaServer Pages (JSP), JSP with the use of tags from the JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL), and the eXtensible Markup Language Compiler (XMLC). JSP is a more convenient way to write Java servlets, and allows the insertion of Java code directly into static HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) pages.

Location intelligence is: • An awareness of relationships between location information and business analysis and operations • The ability to use the understanding of geographic relationships to predict how it impacts a business or organization • The capability to react to how location influences an organization by changing business processes in order to minimize risk and maximize opportunities Location Intelligence enables a business to measure, compare and analyze its data from business operations, in conjunction with external data such as transportation networks, regulatory jurisdictions, market characteristics or its own customers. In this section 2 - What is Spectrum Spatial? Spectrum Spatial is an enterprise location intelligence platform designed to provide organizations with a suite of broadly applicable location capabilities, including spatial analysis, mapping, routing, geocoding, and geoprocessing.

I have performed this research part-time at the section GIS Technology of TU Delft in cooperation with the Kadaster (the Dutch Cadastre), in order to get the Master of Science degree in Geodetic Engineering. Typing the last words for this thesis, I have been realizing more than ever that this thesis marks the end of my time as a student at the TU Delft. However, I also realize that I have been working to this point with joy. Many people are “responsible” for this, but I’d like to mention the people who have contributed most. First of all, there are of course people who were directly involved in the research project. Peter van Oosterom had many critical notes and - maybe even more important - the ideas born out of his enthusiasm improved the entire research.

Open Geospatial Data, Software and Standards, In Press. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/s40965-019-0064-0 Full details of the project: https://cityjson.org The international standard CityGML is both a data model and an exchange for- mat to store digital 3D models of cities. While the data model is used by several cities, companies, and governments, in this paper we argue that its XML-based ex- change format has several drawbacks. These drawbacks mean that it is difficult for developers to implement parsers for CityGML, and that practitioners have, as a con- sequence, to convert their data to other formats if they want to exchange them with others. We present CityJSON, a new JSON-based exchange format for the CityGML data model (version 2.0.0). CityJSON was designed with programmers in mind, so that software and APIs supporting it can be quickly built. It was also designed to be compact (a compression factor of around six with real-world datasets), and to be friendly for web and mobile development.

  • XML Pipeline Performance
    XML Pipeline Performance Nigel Whitaker DeltaXML Ltd <nigel.whitaker@deltaxml.com> Tristan Mitchell DeltaXML Ltd <tristan.mitchell@deltaxml.com> Abstract This paper considers XML pipeline performance of a case study constructed from real code and data. It extends our original small study into 'Filter Pipeline Performance' on the saxon-help email list. The system used in this case study is a comparison tool for OASIS OpenDocument Text or '.odt' files. We will not describe the code in detail, but rather concentrate on the mechanisms used to interlink the various pipeline components used. These components include XML parsers, XSLT filter stages, XML comparison, Java filters based on the SAX XMLFilter interface and serialization. In the previous study we compared two pipelining techniques; this paper will extend this to consider three mechanisms which can be used to construct pipelines; these are: • The Java API for XML Processing (JAXP) included in Java Standard Edition 1.4 and subsequent releases • The s9api package provided by the Saxon XSLT processor 9.0 and sub- sequent releases • The Calabash implementation of the XProc XML pipeline language Our primary focus is performance and we will look at run times and memory sizes using these technologies. The overall runtime of the complete system will be described, but we will then concentrate on the performance of running a chain of filters (XSLT and Java based) as this is likely to be of moregeneral interest. We will also discuss some optimization techniques we have implemen- ted during the development process and further ideas for future performance improvement work. 1. Introduction In this section we will introduce the system being studied, briefly describe the data and also some aspects of the experimental approach.
